Where do you lay down your watches?

Hi there, I was wondering where most of you laid down your watches when got home, etc.?

Any of you using these mats that jewelers have (and if so, where can I get some)?

Thanks in advance!

On the kitchen counter next to my wallet and keys.

I do place to carefully on a watch polishing cloth to prevent it from getting scratched on the granite.

This stuff again…

Anyway I’ll answer. I keep it on my wrist when I get home. Then at night it goes on my nightstand. That’s it.

When I don’t wear it, it goes inside the safe.

My wrist, winder, or watch box.

I never take my watch off and keep the one I’m not wearing tucked away in box but I got these cool stands for my groomsmen. Very inexpensive and keep em safe from scratches.

I have this on my nightstand: https://www.amazon.com/Otto-Leather-...7930466&sr=8-7

Watch goes in the big section, pair of glasses in the smaller section.

Where do you lay down your watches?

Normally in the sock drawer so I don’t knock it off somewhere

On a perch with a night cover over the entire dial and then we remove it in the morning to soft classical music and slowly open the window shades.

How dare you sleep on the floor. I stay awake all night and gaze at the watches that lay on a California king bed with 2000 thread count sheets (changed daily). I’ll even fluff the pillows in the middle of the night.

Watch box (holds 4 watches) our middle son gifted me. I have three watches: a Casio Illuminator, Tudor Submariner (black face/bezel), Citizen Eco-Drive dress watch. The fourth space is for my plastic bracelets I wear from time to time.

Haha! Just kidding GP. MUCH respect to you and all people in uniform. But I know marines and naval types have a healthy competition.
